When The Music's Over (Live In Boston, 1970) (2nd Show) (Live In Boston, 1970 2nd Show) - The Doors

When the music's over

When the music's over, yeah

When the music's over

Turn out the lights

Turn out the lights

Turn out the lights

Yeah, yeah

When the music's over

When the music's over

When the music's over

Turn out the lights

Turn out the lights

Turn out the lights

For the music is your special friend

Dance on fire as it intends

Music is your only friend

Until the end

Until the end

Until the end

Cancel my subscription to the resurrection

Send my credentials to the house of detention

I got some friends inside

The face in the mirror won't stop

The girl in the window won't drop

A feast of friends alive she cried

Waiting for me outside

Before I sink into the big sleep

I want to hear

I want to hear

The scream of the butterfly

Come back, baby

Back into my arms

We're getting tired of hangin' around

Waiting around

With our heads to the ground

I hear a very gentle sound

Very near

Yet very far

Very soft

Yet very clear

Come today

Come today

What have they done to the earth?

What have they done to our fair sister?

Ravaged and plundered

And ripped her

And bit her

Stuck her with knives

In the side of the dawn

And tied her with fences

And dragged her down

I hear a very gentle sound

With your ear down to the ground -

We want the world and we want it,

We want the world and we want it, now

Now? NOW!

Persian night! Babe

See the light! Babe

Save us!

Jesus!

Save us!

So when the music's over

When the music's over, yeah

When the music's over

Turn out the lights

Turn out the lights

Turn out the lights

Well, the music is your special friend

Dance on fire as it intends

Music is your only friend

Until the end

Until the end

Until the end
